¹ अक्षराणां मुष्टिरिव मुष्टिकागुप्तिरिति। सा माभासा निराभासा च । तत्र साभासा अक्षरमुद्रेति उच्यते। तया कथनं गूढ़वस्तुमन्त्रणार्थं ग्रन्थसंक्षेपार्थञ्च। निराभासा भूतमुद्रेत्युच्यते। तया कथनं गुह्यावस्तुमन्त्रणार्थम्। Yaśodhara illustrates this by quoting verses from the *Chandra-prabhā-vijaya-kāvya* of Ravigupta.
